It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Mundhir ‘Adawiyyah that she says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to my house, and with him was Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), who was weak after recovering from illness. Our half-ripe dates were hanging. Hazrat Umm Mundhir says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) got up and ate some dates, and Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) also stood up and began to eat. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Leave it, for you are weak." The narrator says: So Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) sat down, and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) continued to eat from those dates. Then I (Umm Mundhir) cooked some greens and barley for them, so the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): "Eat from this."
